Pokémon: The Climb

While Akao and others were rushing out of the city to pick up people, at the foot of a mountain somewhere outside the city, Yang Yan was leisurely eating breakfast and enjoying a rare leisure time in the past few days.

Behind him, the cave he temporarily opened was almost filled with piles of various things.

There was an unstoppable smile on Yang Yan's lips, "It feels good to eat both ends!"

In the past few days, Yang Yan and Akao cooperated, attacking here today and looting there tomorrow. I don't know how many things were seized.

Since the independent space contains various research equipment that were previously plundered from the Seven Sages Asura's laboratory, and the space ring on his body needs to be used as a transportation tool, these things that have different values ​​and take up space can only find a temporary place to hide. .

Parker was trying to find a way to contact Da Keying and Da Keduo, so Yang Yan notified Miga's team to come over to receive and process them.

He himself would not waste time doing such chores.

Of course, this is also because the value of these things is not particularly high. Most of them just take up space, and it's hard to say whether the total is worth the truckload of high-end wine.

"It's such a pity that so much wine was damaged during the fight. It's such a waste!" Yang Yan couldn't help but think of what he saw when he returned to the warehouse after the battle.

The lingering aroma of wine soaked into the ground, and you can still smell it now, which shows how much it was damaged.

If someone who loves wine knew about this, he would probably be so distressed that he would vomit blood.

After eating, I picked up my phone and checked the latest news from Akao.

The first thing Yang Yan saw was a sideways photo of a fat man with a full belly.

"This is the representative sent by the Tessa clan to negotiate. I remember Akao said his name is Og Tessa? He is dressed in a suit and leather shoes, and he looks like a successful businessman. He is much more presentable than the Mensa he killed before!"

After evaluating the photo, Yang Yan clicked on another document.

It was the document Ogg sent to Akao after he learned about the death of the short-haired man and promoted Akao, who had the most merit, as his agent.

The document contains the information of the person sent by Team Plasma to participate in the negotiations.

"Yorges, the Seven Sages... looks like an old man again in the photo?"

"Being responsible for the exploration and excavation of wild ruins in Team Plasma, looking for treasures and knowledge left by ancient times... isn't this just an archaeologist? Isn't it really nonsense to let such a person be responsible for negotiations?"

"But if Team Plasma is not interested in peace talks, then it will be much easier for me!"

Yang Yan originally planned to find an opportunity to kill the envoy sent by Team Plasma during the peace talks, thereby further increasing the conflict between the two parties, but it seems that there is no need to be so anxious and let's take a look at the situation first.

By the way, let Akao find a way to pass Ogg and start collecting the latest information on Team Plasma.

It has been more than half a month since Yang Yan arrived in this city, and the second round of gym leader assessment has come to an end. In the next two days, the list of people who have advanced to the final assessment will be announced, and the specific content of the third round of assessment will be announced.

Before that, Yang Yan was going to settle down and wait for news from his father.

After changing his clothes and hiding the cave, Yang Yan set off for Linshi.

……

Three days later, Pokémon Center.

"Mom and Dad, seeing how happy you are, you should have passed the second round of assessment successfully, right?"

Across the screen, Yang Yan could also feel the relaxed and joyful mood, and couldn't help but laugh along with it.

"Passed successfully." Dad nodded and said with some fear: "But the final ranking is not high, more than 160, which is very risky."

Yang Yan didn't care about his ranking, "Just pass it. After all, there are many more king-level trainers participating in the second round of assessment. In addition, it is not the first time for some people to participate in the gym leader assessment. These people are rich in experience, so they can't compare." nothing."

"Don't worry, son, your dad and I are not that easily affected. There are more than 160 people. All those who have signed up to take the assessment are working hard. Our 'basic' is just a little bit behind. If we can pass the test, it will be better." That’s my greatest expectation.”

"Dad, that's great if you think so. Don't put too much pressure on yourself." Yang Yan then asked, "By the way, the third round of assessment has been decided. What is the specific situation?"

There is not much information available online about the final round of the gym leader assessment.

This is because the final round, unlike a battle, has a specific place for people to watch.

And because the duration is relatively long, a full 4 months. It takes a long time, which proves that the task is complex and changeable, so not many people have the leisure to stare at it for that long.

When it comes to this, the smile on dad's face gradually fades and becomes serious.

"This last round, as you know, examines the examiner's research on city development. This includes the compilation and collection of information about the city, investigation and development reports, development suggestions, and in the end, the actual contribution made to the city."

"To tell you the truth, son, my father basically doesn't understand these things at all. Now it's really like one person is the head of the other two, ugh!"

Yang Yan comforted him: "Don't worry, then tell me carefully, and I will help you refer to it!"

After a long chat, Yang Yan basically understood the content of the final round of assessment.

In short, the United Alliance will assign the 200 trainers who have passed the test to different towns, allowing them to understand the cities they are responsible for from the perspective of gym leaders and give suggestions for future development. .

Of course, these are not enough, and specific actions are needed. For example, what problems have been solved for the town within a time limit, what benefits have been brought, and what impact has been caused. These are the real criteria for judging.

It’s not surprising that Dad would feel embarrassed. After all, Dad only attended the ranger academy, and most of the content involved in the final assessment has nothing to do with the knowledge learned by the trainer, which is business, politics, etc. The knowledge that only scholars can learn and master is very similar to the knowledge that Yang Yan needed to learn in his previous life.

There are also many non-Pokémon-oriented schools in this world that are close to the education situation of Yangyan's previous life.

They, trainers, and breeders are like two parallel lines that rarely intersect.

Therefore, it is completely reasonable for dad to be worried.

But these are indeed things that Gym Leaders need to understand and learn. After all, Gym Leaders and the city are one.

Of course, the museum owner is not responsible for specific administration, development, land, business, etc. related work, so he does not need to master a lot of professional knowledge, but it will definitely not be justified if he does not understand basic things.

The next four months will definitely be difficult. Now we can only take one step at a time, and Yang Yan has no good plan.

"By the way, Dad, before I have time to ask, which city are you assigned to?"

"Me? The city I was assigned to be responsible for is called Yeba City..."
